WickedPdfStandalone

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'wicked_pdf_standalone'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install wicked_pdf_standalone

Usage

Here is example usage, with draper:

$  output_path = File.join("/tmp", "file.pdf")
$  @subject = Model.find(1)
$  @pdf_renderer_instance = WkPdfRenderer.new
$  @pdf_renderer_instance.to_file(output_path, subject.some_default_pdf_renderer_options) do |renderer|
$    renderer.instance_variable_set("@subject", SubjectDecorator.decorate(@subject))
$  end

And if you want to spit out a file, right away:

$  save_path = Rails.root.join("filename.pdf")
$  file = File.open(save_path, 'wb') do |file|
$    file << @pdf_renderer_instance.send(:make_pdf)
$  end
$
